Microkorg with Ableton Questions

[BoxDJ]

1. How do you switch through Ableton instruments? With my launchpad, I want to play the drums, but then I get stuck on another instrument such as a grand piano. How do I switch?

2. Can I record the synth sounds from the microkorg?

3. What kind of setup do I need to do before I can use my Microkorg with Ableton?

4. What is the MIDI THRU port on my Microkorg? Lost the manual


Thanks yall

1) You drag-n-drop a different instrument to the same track.
2) Yes, you need an audio interface that you can connect the MicroKorg to. Most people have external ones with 1/4" inputs or SPDIF
3) You will want a MIDI connection from it to your PC/MAC (not sure what platform/OS you are using) and an audio interface to connect it to the PC.
4) Go and download the manual from Korg's website.

That's all I can think of at the moment.
